Subject: [nfs-utils PATCH] gssd: protect kerberos ticket cache access
gssd_get_single_krb5_cred() is a function that's will (for when needed)
send a TGT request to the KDC and then store it in a credential cache.
If multiple threads (eg., parallel mounts) are making an upcall at the
same time then getting creds and storing creds need to be serialized due
to do kerberos API not being concurrency safe.
Fixes: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-103627
